My only complaint is that you can't buy a car with a navigation system in Hawaii. That's not so much a complaint about the Camry as it is a complaint about the auto industry. When we were shopping around, I kept asking every dealer if they had any cars with a navigation system. The idiot salesman at the Acura dealer told me, "No, they don't have satellite coverage for that here." That dude clearly has NO CLUE how GPS works. All that it would require is for the stupid auto manufacturers to load the Hawaii roadmaps into the DVD database in the car. All the GPS does is plot your latitude and longitude ANYWHERE in the world. <BR/> If we had been on the mainland, I would have bought one with a Navigation system. So the question arises - when we go back to the mainland, should I sell this Camry here and buy one with a Navigation system stateside? <BR/> Otherwise, absolutely love the Camry Hybrid. As much as I drool over how cool the Lexus IS350, the Infiniti G35, the Nissan 350Z, or the Audi TT all look, I just don't think I can bring myself to spend that much on gas anymore. I fill up my gas tank so infrequently in the Camry that I always forget which side of the car the gas tank is on.blunozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02917109513028096262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2977044224939777967.post-16119015579539864912008-02-12T00:39:00.000-05:002008-02-12T00:39:00.000-05:00They just did a bunch of construction on a highway...They just did a bunch of construction on a highway interchange here, just south of Bangor. I have seen a TON of close calls, because to follow the left turn lane on a green you cross over into oncoming traffic. This is going in both directions. Not only that, but the lane lines are sometimes rather... interesting at that interchange.<BR/><BR/>What make of hybrid do you drive? We've got a ways to go before we get a new car, but I've been drooling over many of the new ones coming out.Celiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18232302529800718534noreply@blogger.com
